"We are proud to have been chosen by a leading flat panel HDTV brand in North America, which validates the high quality of our innovative solutions," said Roger Holliday, vice president of business development for Microsemi's Integrated Circuits group. "This project was particularly exciting as it gave us the opportunity to collaborate with a fellow Orange County-based technology company that is making such an impact on the industry."
